Description Dennis Ballance CLA 2006-12-07 14:21:29 EST
Build ID: M20060629-1905

Steps To Reproduce:
1. Select "Change ASCII/Binary" from the Team menu for a file.
2. enter a commit message and click Finished

CVSNT Server replies: "admin -k no longer affects future checkins. Use update -k / commit -f instead." The change does not happen as a result.


More information:
This is with CVSNT version 2.5.03.226 on Debian.
It would be nice if the command issued to the server could be customized based on the version of the cvs server. Thanks!

This is currently now plan to provide support for forms of CVS. However, we are willing to accept contributions as long as they have no impact on operation against the standard CVS server versions.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it and remove the stalebug whiteboard tag. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
